The weekend of March 5-6 has started early with two midweek games (see scores below). This weekend is also a big kickoff tournament weekend, with Oregon hosting their preseason tilt.
The Carolina Ruggerfest is massive, and will welcome teams from all over the East, and while it's technically not a kickoff tournament because league games in North Carolina have already started, it's kind of a signal that things are about to get serious.
Serious is the word for the Lindenwood Tournament, which hosts some of the top teams in the middle of the country, including St. Thomas Aquinas, which won the Oklahoma Showdown last week, and top-ranked teams such as Penn HS.
There's also the Jesuit Showdown in Dallas.
Among the games to keep an eye on, Woodlands v Cy-Fair could be a bellweather for how good Woodlands really is, and Gonzaga hosting Doylestown and Cumberland Valley will be intriguing, also. Colorado's season has started, but the game to watch has already happened, with Colorado Springs putting up an impressive 31-15 win over PAC. Check out also our preview on West Shore at West End.
Note that some leagues, such as Arizona, Northern California, and Southern California, have taken a break because of the USA 7s. Check back here for scores.
